A true story from former 76ers president Pat Williams and Philadelphia Inquirer Bill Lyons, about what it means to move from good to GREAT in the NBA of the 1970s--the book is a year by year description of rising to the World Champions in 1982-83. The power of this book can lead any person or organization to greatness--it shares how things can go from bad to worse, from worst to dead in a matter of minutes or in this case years. But what is fascinating about the Sixers players, front office and fans is that they did not give up--the vision was set in stone and they were going to find a way to break down the barriers. By them winning it all tells and shares with us that most things are possible, it just may take time. WE WANT IT NOW--is a common theme today in the 21st century, however this lesson 40 years ago can bring new life and new meaning to the philosophy that achieving greatness takes time. Williams and Lyons did a superb job bringing in a myriad of details. Their insight on what it takes to create a World Champion in sports is very insightful. This book is an original and a collectible!
